HI guy's I was wondering if any members live in Surrey beautiful British Columbia, Canada...Anyway's my problem is the freak snowstorm we've just had ...Here is my proplem when I started my motor a few weeks ago there was straight water in my engine then the rad had to be fixed so my block now has water in it ...with the tempture freezing what should I do??? Go to Lordco and installl a block heater? Or should I reinstall the rad put antifreeze in and fire it up?? Please help

It might be a little work but to save the engine I would figure out some way to flush antifreeze through the block even if it takes putting the radiator back in.

Obviously get that water out. If it were me I would just warm the motor up a little (without the radiator)...open the drain plugs in the block and let the engine drain down thru the plugholes. Residual heat in the engine should get the H2O moving if it is getting slushy. If you already have a block full of ice well then you have a different problem than getting the now solidly frozen water out.
